will the rear rub if i am going for this setup?

e90 328xi LCI
dropped: KW V1 with 1.5 fingers gap

staggered 219M
F: 18x8.5 et 29 w/ 225/40/18
R: 18x9.5 et 23 w/ 255/35/18

i am pretty sure the front would be ok.
But I am wondering the rear. there are mixed comments about it.
Is anyone with this similar setup?
I don't really wanna roll my fender, so if i guarantee to rub and negative camber won't help, maybe i will get another set of wheels or look for square setup.

Thanks.

i have 18x10 265/35 18 et 25 dropped. it rubs once in a while...

fenders rolled tho..

in your case you shoulddnt rub i remember i had 19x9.5 265/30 no rubbing at all.. until i put 12mm spacers lol.. and dropped also

ok, 219m installed. kw v1 installed.
Here is the result.
without kw v1, no rub at all with 225/255 RE760
with kw v1, rub a bit when no load. rub a lot when 2 adults at the back seat. ROFL

Will do my alignment next week for some negative camber angle. Hope it will help.

Just roll the fenders, it's not a big deal. I've done this on all my cars. It takes an hour for someone who knows what their doing and you'll gain a ton of clearance.

There's absolutely no reason not to roll the fenders, unless you're car is leased.

yea, need to get one with reputation to do it.
I will see what will happen with the negative camber and decide.
gotta do alignment anyway.

I've done rears with a baseball bat just as well as the guy with the fancy tool. It's not rocket science. That lip on the inside of the fender is about 1cm, it rolls easily, just make sure you use a heat gun on the paint or it WILL crack.

[armansiu]

yea, paint crack is what i worry

pay someone to roll your fenders lol..

its like 60 bucks here in NY.. it looks easy enough to DIY but easy to mess up your fenders also..
